Marina Satti is a Greek singer, songwriter, actress, and music producer. Her music combines traditional Greek, Arab, and Balkan sounds with urban elements, rhythm, and production. Satti formed part of the EBU's European Jazz Orchestra. She also performed as a singer of the World Jazz Nonet at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington. Along with Bobby McFerrin, she formed the a cappella vocal group The Singing Tribe. In 2016, Satti founded Fonés ("Voices"), a female acapella group performing traditional polyphonic songs. They have performed at venues such as the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Athens Concert Hall, and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center.
In 2016, Satti released her single "Koupes" ("Cups"), which reached more than 24 million views on YouTube and was included in Ravin & Bob Sinclar's Buddha Bar 20 Years Anniversary album. In 2017, her next single, "Mantissa" ("Seeress"), charted in the European Union's Official Top 100 and Bulgaria's Top 40. Global Citizen named it "Song of the Summer." Joanna Kakissis, the Athens-based correspondent for NPR, described it as "the summer hit that fills a generation with hope".
In 2017, Satti curated a series of cultural events that led to the formation of the choir Chores a portmanteau of the Greek words for "countries" and "choruses"), consisting of 150 women aged 13-55. In 2020, Chores presented traditional songs in archeological locations.
In June 2018, Satti and Fonés presented YALLA!, a repertoire of world music and pop compositions, as well as renditions of Eastern Mediterranean traditional music, which was first performed at the Melina Merkouri Theater and then toured abroad to France, England, Switzerland, as well as to Tampere, Finland, for the 2019 World Music Expo. In May 2022, she released her debut album YENNA ("BIRTH") to great commercial and critical reception. The release of the album was followed by a European tour that lasted over 4 months.
On 24 October 2023, she was announced as the Greek representative at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
